Gamla Stan: Frantzén-Lindeberg opening a pub

Celebrity restaurateurs Frantzén-Lindeberg are opening a classic gastropub with focus on premium-quality ingredients in unpretentious forms.  The Flying Elk will open in February 2013.

The dining room and lobby will face Mälartorget and the view over Slussen. A cocktail bar - The Corner - is also opening on the same floor, along with a beer room where the bar's own craft beer will be produced in the basement. The Gaston wine bar and shop will also be opening, with a separate entrance from Mälartorget square in the Old Town.

-  I've always dreamed of cooking English 'pub grub' - but in my own way. Working together with chef Claes Grännsjö, formerly with the one-star restaurant Kock & Vin, we want to create a place that offers beautifully cooked food in a less refined atmosphere, says Björn Frantzén.

Address: The Flying Elk, Mälartorget 15, Gamla Stan, Stockholm

Note! Frantzén-Lindeberg is one of Stockholms 2 star Michelin restaurants.
